BEP51 Posted January 12, 2011 Report Share Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) Best i could do, polishing in photoshop isnt easy.It will always look a bit grubby if u just do it in white and shine. Try either a red theme or a blue theme (for easy silicone pipe colours, or try something more agressive in colour, caspergti (i think) did his in orange and black, looked amazing Edited January 12, 2011 by BEP51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then just a lot of cleaning later and it will look sweet. U could spray the fluid pots too and just leave a masking tape strip to read them.
